This is one of the worst sourced articles I have ever seen. If you strip out primary sources (YouTube, Focus On The Family), blogs and other cruft, all that's left is the title.

A Google search shows many sales pages but no substantive coverage, no reviews in mainstream sources or anything like that, just homeschooler blogs and ministries.

The obsessive use of the title Dr. when referring to the author leaves a distinct smell of promotion. Guy (help!) 18:01, 23 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Sourced

I started this article in good faith in Aug 2009 it looks like and I don't claim to be an expert in reference material, but I quickly clicked on 7 different articles for other Christian books in this category and this particular article has 28 references, none of the other 7 I looked at were close, if you desire to delete this article based mainly on your personal opinion being the 'Worst Sourced' than you might as well start looking at allllll the other books in this category.

But when I get some time I will go back and look at this and see if I can improve the quality of some of the reference sources for youuuuuu! I believe a request to have the reference sources looked at rather than the article up for deletion would have been a better use of your time and input.
